Hey, I'm trying to use the mysql plugin with Samba 3.0.2 and am running into problems with the password storing aspect of the equation. Specifically, here is how I have the smb.conf file setup: [global] workgroup = SRS netbios name = DustPuppy passdb backend = mysql:mysql mysql:mysql host = localhost mysql:mysql user = samba

"An extended error has occured" & "the system cannot find massage text for message number 0x in the message file for \\hostname"

Hi, I was wondering if anyone knew why there would be so many Samba (smbd) processes running on my SCO OpenServer 5.0.5 system? I found an awful lot of them running, much more that what I would expect given the number of Windows PC's on the network. One of the users was having trouble accessing a file on the SCO system, and that is when I discovered this. I actually had to write a program

Hi all, i'm a bit confused, can i setup samba (3.0.30) with LDAP backend, and have the "posix/local linux" users and groups reside in the /etc/groups /etc/shadow ect. ect (the standard linux files) ??? or do i have to put them in ldap also ?? (is there a choice?) Greets, Collen

Hi we're busy discovering samba4 at the moment. we've installed fedora-ds as ldap backend. all install's configs and provisioning went well..

Hmm, gues i missed something... i updated to samba 304, and i had a print script (print command = <script>) but it's not executed annymore ?? i do use cups to get the papers roling...! i did saw some info in the man, saying, that samba compiled against libcups, is not using the print command annymore ?? Huh.. why ?? is there a way to use my cups printer daemon, and the print command ?

Hi all, We're using NT4.0 server as a PDC. I can easily logon the domain on Mandrake 10.1 with samba and winbind. There is no problem with domain logons. But sometimes some domain user profiles are created at /home/NTDOMAIN directory even if they did't logon the computer locally or din't access any shared resource remotelly. How can prevent the creation of the user profiles which

ehh, just a little remark/note for the mysql passwd backend users and developers... when adding a user, the 'account desc' field is NOT filled in..! when adding some text manualy, and doing pdbedit -v <user> the field showes up, so when reading from the passwdbackend, the fields are resolved, when writting too the passwdbackend , the description field (and maybe more important

Dear Herman, We had the same problems over here. The problem seems to be related to Windows Hotfix KB828741. Removing the hotfix through the control panel solved it for us.

Hello, does anyone know if there is a tool in existence that can monitor samba shares like smbstatus but is much more advanced (and runs in console) , I mean a tool that has menues, some search options, and things sorted out nice. A Samba realtime monitor would be the best thing with lots of details and lots of options. I tried Swat, but that aint really a solution to watch who is connected

Dear Sir : Nice to meet you. We are using the Samba v2.0.7 ported from uClinux to build the Samba = server for Network Storage. Currently, we met several strange problems as below : 1) Under Windows XP : The Windows backup function cannot work. But the BackUp function works well under Windows 2000. 2) Under Windows 98/98SE, we cannot copy a file

Ehmmm, i would like to make some sugestions for the new samba release.. the "hide files =" in the smb.conf is a [global] parameter, wouldn't it be nice to make this a [section] parameter... (incase you have some hidden files/dirs in 1 share and in an other the same file/dir names, witch should not be hidden) and second, please please please make an option in pdbedit so that U can
